Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Colors and Seasons

I stick to the original four-season template found in Color Me Beautiful for the basic seasons.

While the concept that we all need to tighten that list down for our very best is on point, I don’t think the 12-season analyses do the job. Instead, if we’re going to tighten down, I agree with Zyla that we should use our own hair/skin/eye colors to do so.

When I talk about colors and seasons … here’s what I mean:

Spring: Floral. Clear, warm – delicate colors, often very specific colors. Spring colors must have life.

Summer: Watercolor season. Cold, muted – sometimes vibrant, but more often misted. Very classic. Navy and wine and just a bit off white.

Winter: Extreme. Intense. The darkest darks, the brightest jewels, the whitest of white – and nothing at all in between. Snow White… lips of blood on skin as white as snow, with hair as dark as a raven’s wing…
